I guess Java is a bit more portable since you don't have to recompile it (in my knowledge)

But yeah. C++ is just better :P

You shouldn't "really" be comparing C++ with Java.
A better comparison would be C# vs Java.

which C# wins because it's less verbose and in general has a better structured language (except for a few quirks, but Java has those too)

Well, Java was built on top of C/C++, so it's a higher level language than C++ to begin with. They can't be compared really well.

C++ is going to be far faster (if coded correctly). Java is easier to use and very widely used within businesses running backend services and such. C++ is used heavily in game development because of it's quick performance.

Java is nice because it is way easier to learn/use, has garbage collection, and is cross-platform since it runs on a VM (JVM).

Both have advantages and disadvantages. I think it really comes down to what you're trying to accomplish. Making a graphics-intensive game? Then use C++. Writing back-end code for a server? Then Java will be great.
